Elephants Beaten, Left with Painful Wounds

This summer, dozens of elephants will be shackled in tiny boxcars and trailers as circuses crisscross the U.S. during the hottest months of the year.

Many will spend hours–even days–in chains as they’re transported from one city to the next, perhaps even your own. When they feel the painful blows of a bullhook to the sensitive, paper -thin skin around their eyes and mouth, it can signal that they’ve reached the next destination –and they’ll once again be forced to perform tricks, fearing what will happen to them if they don’t.

These animals need our help, and they need it now.
